Authenticity in Every Move, Truth in Every Technique

At Jindokai Shotokan Karate, we do more than teach martial arts—we guide a path of personal growth rooted in tradition, truth, and excellence.


Led by Sensei Dion Risborg, a lifelong practitioner of traditional Japanese Shotokan Karate, our dojo is a place where discipline meets authenticity. We’re dedicated to preserving the art as it was intended—uncompromised, respectful, and profoundly impactful.


We offer training for all ages and experience levels, from curious beginners to seasoned black belts. Each class is designed to strengthen body, mind, and spirit—instilling values of respect, perseverance, and integrity.


What sets Jindokai apart is our unwavering commitment to authentic, truthful perspectives. In a world full of noise, we believe in clarity of purpose and sincerity in practice. Our training is grounded in traditional Shotokan principles and led with a deep sense of care and community.


Explore our site to learn more about our dojos in Mount Barker, Mawson Lakes, Angle Vale, and Modbury Heights, meet our dedicated instructors, and discover a training environment that honours the true spirit of Karate.
